I participate in 4 forums and all of them are model railroading related. Aside from this one, I am a member of two UK based forums and one Swiss special interest forum. Neither of those three forums is segemented into a "newbie" and "pro"-section, but all three are much more lively and dialogue-oriented than this one. They are structured differently and have a lot more sub-categories than the MR forum. The basic structure is nearly identical: Manufacturer´s News <ul> <li>New Releases</li> <li>General News</li> </ul> Rolling Stock <ul> <li>Locos</li> <li>Cars</li> </ul> Layout Topics <ul> <li>Layout design</li> <li>Layout Building</li> <li>Members Layouts</li> </ul> Workbench <ul> <li>Scratchbuilding/Kitbuilding</li> </ul> Hints, Tips and Modelling Help Queries Electrics and Electronics <ul> <li>DC</li> <li>DCC</li> <li>Others</li> </ul> Prototype Moments of Inspiration <ul> <li>Show me ...</li> <li>WPF ...</li> </ul> Notice Board <ul> <li>Events, Exhibitions</li> </ul> General Modelling Discussion Bulrushes - the off-topic section Most of these forums also habe a trading section, but that´s not really an issue. I think having better categories helps to adress the right audience and also makes searching for info a lot easier. Just food for thought ...
